Donald Trump scuttled a bipartisan Senate bill on immigration and border security just so he could campaign on the immigration crisis at America’s southern border. And now, immigration permeates every plank of the Republican platform. Although anti-immigrant policies have become standard conservative talking points, like many things MAGA they are rooted in the racism and twisted theology of Christian nationalism.

Vance as his running mate—aimed to solidify the bizarre notion that the Republican ticket is pro-labor and “ economic populist .”
